Creator's Key Takeaways

I am happy to say that it went much much better and in fact was one of my favorite cruises I've ever ever taken.

The internet on this Cruise was so so good that I could watch YouTube videos I could scroll Tik Tok I could do whatever.

The beaches themselves are more beautiful than Castaway key but there wasn't as much to do.

Tangled the musical this is I think the number one rated show on a lot of lists when people are ranking the DCL stage shows a lot of people rank this first for a reason it is a freaking Delight.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a room mid ship for better access to amenities.
Request a different dining rotation if assigned to Lumiere on both first and last night.
Put in a server request for better service.
Go to the shows on the Disney Magic, especially Tangled the musical.
Stay on the ship at ports that aren't worth disembarking for.
